WHO’S AFRAID OF DAVID LYNCH?

A wonderful threading of emotional scenes substantiated by the implied mechanics of a surreal reality. The entire show is emotional scenework and it speaks to the audience in a primal way. There is something very human going on here, and that is very refreshing.... full review

Good for the everyman, great for the Lynchian master. The deepest dive into the cinema of David Lynch through the poetry of his lens and the music of his movies, edited by Bizzaro Shaw Fisher, a cracked reflection of a Fringe veteran who has been shattered by sleep deprivation and immersion in all things Lynch. Begins strange, gets foggy, self-corrects like a top about to fall over, then twists another and ANOTHER and ANOTHER film into the taffy until you are certain that your particular favorite won't show up...and then you get to walk the Weirding Way. Perfect for the reconfigured theatrical space at 3 Clubs, very well staged with minimal setting. Fun to watch, to experience, and to be present in the world. Probably not for those who ha... full review

Moody in the best way possible.... full review

Easily the most stylized, polished, and bonkers entertaining show of the fest. If you're a Lynch fan, you absolutely cannot miss this pastiche of bizarro moments inspired by nearly (possibly) all of his cinematic (and television) works, complete with musical numbers and characterizations that will leave you fizzier than a shaken can of Pabst Blue Ribbon. I would suspect non-Lynch fans would also find themselves swept up in the heady, often hilarious, and downright mesmerizing pull of this wild ride.... full review

As close to a cinematic experience that a theater can provide in the best way possible. Great acting, singing, music, light design, set design, costumes, etc. all worked together to make the most out of a funny, well-written script... full review

Extraordinary storytelling at its most alluring. I am already on the record that Michael Shaw Fisher is one of my favorite writers, full stop, and once again he dazzles Hollywood Fringe audiences as writer/director. The cast is wonderful as they expertly usher us along this whimsical tale, that has no top or bottom, or sides. I loved David Haverty, Leigh Wulff, and Fisher himself, who by now are all old stand-bys in Shaw Fisher works. I'd never seen Misha Reeves or Juan Lozano before but they fit right in with this band of impressive misfits in the best way. Congrats to all involved as nothing short of complete commitment to every moment would have worked. And the show really worked for me, it was such an engaging watch. The choreography and... full review

Wow! I'm still thinking about this show 2 days later and I've been binging David Lynch movies. This show is another Fisher masterpiece, you have to see this. Even if you don't know who David Lynn is, the show is still intriguing and pulls you in. The whole cast is fantastic. Everyone sings great. It's like every David Lynch movie wrapped into one. You should put this on top of you to-see-list.... full review

This show hit the mark perfectly many times as it created the vibe and tone of David Lynch's world of sexy, bizarre, disturbing and beautiful chaos. ... full review

A sensory-overload, labyrinthine fantasia as could only emerge from the mind of Michael Shaw Fisher channeling David Lynch. This is the stuff the best of Fringe is made of. Whatever your knowledge of David Lynch's oeuvre, Who's Afraid of David Lynch? is a blast.... full review
